[NFS] Please help with NFS on Kubuntu Karmic 9.10

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I am unable to connect with Kubuntu netbook remix Karmic 9.10.

I have seen many posts and articles on this issue.

The problem seems to be centered around the nfs version being used
and I have placed the following 2 lines in /etc/fstab:

kata:/          /mnt/kata       nfs     defaults,noauto,nfsver=2  0 0
kata:/home      /mnt/kata/home  nfs     defaults,noauto,nfsver=2  0 0
kata is the netbook server which I am trying to mount on the client
called arriba which runs on Kubuntu 8.04 LSB.

Most of the posts I have read say to add 'nfsver-2' to the fstab lines.
However on both client and server, cat /proc/filesystems |grep nfs
shows only:
nodev nfs
nodev nfs4 and
nodev nfsd.

It seems that this problem appears when people upgrade to (K)ubuntu 9.10
from an earlier version.  In my case, this is a new netbook and I loaded 
the most recent version Kubuntu 9.10.  Efforts to load Kubuntu 8.04 LTS
which I use on my other machines failed - possibly because of the 
limited facilities on this small HP 110 Netbook.

This result happens on both server kata and client arriba.
I don't know that the 'nodev' means.

I would like to add either nfs2 or nfs3 but have no idea how to specify
this in apt-get or aptitude.

I'd also like to add that I have used Linux desktops and nfs for years 
(mostly on the command line) and believe it's setup correctly.

Please I am requesting troubleshooting advice.
It's getting really old to have to use a thumb drive to transfer files.
